Well, this seems to me to have been quite an interesting thing to do, but
quite depressing....my reactions after reading only a few lines of each are
that 1 & 4 are human, the rest (2, 3, 5, 7, 8, & 10) are programs; though 8
takes the prize for being a weird program !

I desperately hope that I'm wrong, and that either 1 or 4 is a program -
otherwise we haven't really progressed in the last 20 years, have we .... ?
